Produção agroalimentar avícola no território brasileiro: especialização e vulnerabilidades

Abstract

In the current globalized period, issues related to the actions of transnational economic agents are accentuated, which through their technical and productive conditions influence territories and make them specialized in certain sectors, corroborating the actual International Division of Labor (DIT) and generating different territorial vulnerabilities. In many cases, these processes are linked to the logic of agricultural commodities. One of the sectors that end up consolidating these regional productive specializations is poultry farming, which is accepted as the production of poultry meat, especially chicken, for human consumption. Therefore, it is perceived as Latin American countries, mainly Brazil ends up being a large producer in the global poultry protein market. Therefore, the Course Conclusion Work aims to understand the process of developing technical and productive densities of the poultry sector in the subspaces of the Brazilian territory, identifying their regional specialization as generators of territorial vulnerabilities, choosing a methodological path, a research through bibliographic survey, analysis and measurement of statistical data, thematic mapping and documental research. This study takes importance because the country has a high productive workforce, being a sector with great relevance which employs and needs large contingents of social, economic and natural resources, in addition to causing different socio-spatial vulnerabilities. As a result, it was possible to see how Brazil places itself in front of the DIT as a semi-peripheral agro-exporting country, in which among the exported products is the poultry protein, which production is extremely concentrated in some parts of the territory, marking regional productive specializations , and generating socio-territorial impacts of different orders.
